We are responsible for our own immunity. I never blame other people when I contract an illness. That is the nature of these things, it is easily spread via human contact and proximity, and you can spread these things even before showing any serious symptoms. So how is it selfish if you don't even know you're sick?
And like Medusa said, not everyone has the privilege of taking time off to fully recuperate, especially when the flu can last for weeks.
Please don't be angry at other people for being sick... make all the right decisions to improve your own immunity with a proper balance of nutrition, stress management, and hygiene.
I do, however, accept criticism of those who don't practice these things, especially if they are prone to getting sick. It still amazes me the number of people I notice in public washrooms who inadequately "wash" their hands or who don't even bother going through this ineffective gesture...
